Electrix Cheerleading is a cheer and gym club on Nile Street West in The Brook, Nelson. Its classes cover competitive and recreational cheerleading, tumbling, homeschool sport and preschool movement. Competitive teams perform a two and a half minute routine at national and international events, and they train for two hours twice a week. Teams are split by age and level, including mini-competitive teams for children under eight. Recreational teams enjoy the sport without the competitions, following the club's own skills curriculum. The club also runs preschool classes, both daytime and after school, and it takes bookings from preschools and home learning centres. Adults can join a Thursday evening beginners class. Holiday programmes for children aged 5 to 13 are open to members and non-members alike. Parents say the coaches are kind but firm, and that their children have learnt discipline, resilience, teamwork and how to get back up after a setback. Some parents say the sport gives energetic children a healthy outlet. The club holds mid-year and end-of-year events where the teams perform.
